摘要
We characterize the electro-optic frequency response of a four-port traveling-wave dual-drive modulator with relatively strong coupling amongst the electrodes. We show that the electro-optic frequency response of the MZM can still be predicted with the 2x2 cascaded matrix model if the MZM is symmetric and differentially driven.
